CCminer(SP-MOD) Modded GPU kernels.

[jimmybob_007]

OK, thanks for the update.

Do you think I can start with 4 threads whilst I buy more RAM? Should this work?

You don't need to add more ram. You just have to increase the ram in windows. (harddrive ram)

http://www.pcworld.com/article/2840886/if-windows-virtual-memory-is-too-low-you-can-increase-it-but-there-are-trade-offs.html

It's already set to over 18GB.

Do I need to further increase?

So what is your problem?

Did you add a failover in the batfile

:loop
skminer (...)
timeout 10
goto loop

If the blockchain is ddos'es and the wallet loose connection, the miner will sometimes exit.

[jimmybob_007]

The problem is it finds no blocks.

The miner runs fine at 1.2ghs (200mhs per 1080). Runs for hours, height updates perfectly and in sync.

On your version #3 I would find 1-2 blocks per day on my single 1080 gaming rig. Unfortunately I cannot use #3 on my 6 gpu celeron rig as it crashes all the time.

It cannot be right that I haven't found a block on a combined 7 1080s in 48 hours using #5.

Cheers,
Jimmy

Can you show me your batfile please?

:Run
skminer.exe 192.168.0.2 9325 6 10 47
goto Run

[sp_]

:Run
skminer.exe 192.168.0.2 9325 6 10 47
goto Run

Try to run in benchmark mode


skminer.exe 192.168.0.2 9325 6 10 47 1

Do you get accepted solutions?

I have cpu verfication of the hash in the benchmarkmode.

[jimmybob_007]

Everything seems fine?

[sp_]

I am running with default intensity like this:

:loop
skminer.exe  127.0.0.1 9325
goto loop


a healthy output looks like this:





Did your output show Acc=0 and REJ=0 in 48 hours? If you get Acc>0 it will take a while until it shows in the wallet and you can spend it.

[jimmybob_007]

Here is my output with 6 10 47 - looks fine.



If i use default (remove 6 10 47) it's the same just 1ghs (200mhs lower)

[jimmybob_007]

As I mentioned earlier, I've been using #3 on a single 1080 and finding ~1-2 blocks a day (Acc = 1 or Acc = 2 etc)

Now with #5 it runs exactly the same but never finds a block. Everything else is the same, no system change or wallet change, just using miner #5.

Problem is #3 won't run properly on celeron.

I have found blocks with both release #4 and release #5. and it works on the celeron. #5 has been out 3 weeks, and noone have complained but you.

In release #6 I will add gpu selection. so you can split into 6 seperate windows processes.

OK, I appreciate your feedback and thanks for trying to help out.

I know that there are many others in the Nexus Slack with the same problem on #5. Most people have stopped using #5 and have gone back to #3 or Majoh.

Just wanted to make you aware and help you to try and fix it. Any chance you could add the celeron fix to #3? That seemed to find a lot of blocks for me.

I released Nexus sp-mod #6 with a reverted celeron cpu fix.

Release #6 works on small chunks of hashes like in #3, so the performance is down abit, but faster block finding. (works best when the diff is small)
This version use more CPU, so if you have a fast CPU you get more hash..
I already found a block with 300MHASH, so it seems to work good..

Working fine so far. Thanks for the update. Found my first Rej so I guess it found something

[expnote]

I run https://github.com/sp-hash/ccminer/releases/tag/LBRYSP6
is connect: Starting on stratum+tcp://lbr.mine.zpool.ca:3334
As on another pool? example .bat please!

It has a built in dev fee.

How's the nexus profitability for the 1070s right now?

[ylpkm]

cant say, ran the #6 miner for a few hours with 710mhs and got nothing. would like to hear what others are getting too. I try to mine when difficulty is below 450 and still nothing. *shrugs

[sp_]

I got 4 blocks with 300mhash with #6 in 3 days.

With the Dcr network falling out due to the 'stall' it might be really profitable to get on the Dcr train right now before it ramps back up. At least until everyone updates their software.

Profit calculators and difficulty haven't caught up yet, should be extremely profitable through tomorrow, maybe even a couple days.
